Starting a business? How? & Who’s going to buy?

Central to your business is the person buying your product or service.. If you cant say to yourself – “What’s missing from the market – or What do people need?” then stop, go home and think again.

If you have an awesome idea then there’s no better time to make it work than right now.

Investors, technology and people hungry for better ways to do things (BE DISRUPTIVE) you can really do it now, but it can be a minefield, and don’t be afraid to ask for help and advice.

Best of all – TEST YOUR IDEA – prove the concept.

With preparation and the right trappings, you can almost eliminate risk and create a service, solution, product or business that is either novel – or better than the competition.

Firstly – find your niche, what is missing? What can YOU do better?

Then – find your audience, and do some testing, do it with family and friends, then try it on strangers at trade shows, on the street or online. It’s the only way you’ll know if it works.

Define your audience, wicked trainers with flashing lights are unlikely to tempt grandma, so do some research you know who to test on, and where to market.

Once your idea is well-defined and tested.. . kick in with some beta testing. Build a prototype, give some freebies away – offer a free service to get some testimonials – this does not have to be expensive.
